My 11 year old has been a fervent supporter tonight. 🥰

Campbell having a great game on debut

[Jaded No More 68,974]

This women’s team would beat West Coast. 
Unbelievable performance! 

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,451]

Wow.

[whatwhat say what 23,074]

amazing performance 

bannon gave everyone a fright hey? thank goodness that wasn't what i originally thought it was...

Commentator: 'An exhibition'

Yes.

[Demon Disciple 12,313]

Talk about a flip in script from halfway through the second. We went on a 61-5 point run.

[BDA 22,955]

Outstanding second half. we smashed them. all our leaders stood up when the game was in the balance. It'll take a very good team to deny us again this year.

hopefully the men can repeat the dose next week.

go dees

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,621]

Pies torn a new one. More of the same next Thursday please. 

[WERRIDEE 5,537]

What a game from Heath. Her job on Davey changed the game. Mackin, McNamara, Hore and Hanks superb. Campbell was impressive for a second gamer. I'd say no change for next week. Go Dees it's going to take something drastically wrong for us not to win the premiership this year.

[dees189227 12,432]

That was a brilliant 2nd half. The new skipper was outstanding and led the way after half time.

Our forward line looks like it will function well. 

Lets hope it's an omen for next Thursday night

Shelley Heath is the definition of underrated. What a star!

The whole half, indeed, D11!😊

[Maldonboy38 6,406]

I thought moving Hore and West into the middle made a huge difference, even though West was a bit off her best. 

The skill level of Harris, Hanks and McNamara is really high, and I love watching them play.

But individuals aside, that was a cracking game of team footy. Only 2 years ago I couldn't watch AFLW due to its low standard - not any more. That was great to watch. Our pressure, spread from stoppages, and running for each other in the 2nd half was brilliant. 

Great win - go Dees!

Yes agree!  Glorious wasn't it. 

[dees189227 12,432]

Eden zankar is a star 

[Maldonboy38 6,406]

Shelley Heath was so important, and did a LOT of hard work, especially considering how tiny she is. All while kicking a quiet 2 goals and keeping Davey ineffectual. 

[Deeoldfart 8,082]

Powerful sums it up for me!

[Axis of Bob 11,875]

Having 5 players who are genuine aerial threats inside 50 whilst not losing speed is such an advantage. Being able to put a score on the board when you’re on top is so important in this competition.

[Demon Disciple 12,313]

Let’s take a look at that ladder

Agree with that. some of our play from the middle into the forwaed 50 was amazing. Hore was captain fantastic in the 2nd half. I thaught our defence started to get things together but Gay and Birch look like they are still on holidays. Shelley Heath is probably my favorite player. She went from being a half back flanker to midfield tagger and dangerous forward. Eliza McNamaras 2nd half was excellent. Good to see her get some clear rouches and great ball movement.

Lets hope the blokes can do to the filth what the girls have done. My beer is tasting fine.
